| 01:52.53 | christopher | SpanKY: pong |
| 01:53.15 | ByronT | christopher, bk push working on windows xp here |
| 01:53.31 | christopher | yeah, I read that |
| 01:53.40 | christopher | thanks for putting that up I'll look into it |
| 01:54.02 | ByronT | only because BitMover support called me back to get it working |
| 01:54.32 | ByronT | it must have been a slow day at BitMover support... :) |
| 01:54.57 | christopher | yeah |
| 01:55.25 | SpanKY | christopher: hey, feel like hacking on genext2fs autoblock calc again ? :) |
| 01:55.31 | ByronT | and yes, it's sweet to watch bk push from my xp machine |
| 01:56.00 | christopher | SpanKy: kergoth and I conlcluded that you couldn't ever get an entirely accurate count |
| 01:56.17 | christopher | unless you build an image and then measure it |
| 01:56.24 | kergoth | without creating the filesystem twice, anyway :) |
| 01:56.27 | kergoth | if you're willing to do that, sure |
| 01:56.31 | christopher | right |
| 01:56.32 | kergoth | it might be worthwhile. |
| 01:56.49 | SpanKY | right, well feel like fielding some questions from upstream ? :) |
| 01:57.11 | christopher | sure |
| 01:57.19 | SpanKY | http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/genext2fs-devel |
| 01:57.21 | christopher | kergoth: do you have the code that you were working on? |
| 01:57.25 | kergoth | somewhere.. |
| 01:57.26 | kergoth | hehe |
| 01:57.30 | kergoth | i'll try to dig it up |
| 01:57.38 | SpanKY | just drop a quick e-mail being like 'hi Xavier, questions about autoblock calc !?' |
| 01:58.33 | christopher | ok, I'm short on time currently but I can see what I can do |
| 01:59.15 | SpanKY | thanks :) |
| 01:59.23 | christopher | np |
| 02:00.08 | christopher | send the e-mail to the whole list? |
| 02:00.24 | christopher | k, gotta run, bbl |
| 02:02.18 | SpanKY | yeah, that'll be fine |
| 02:05.34 | [g2] | Hey SpanKY ! |
| 02:07.23 | SpanKY | hey baby ! |
| 02:08.20 | [g2] | How's my fav' active Gentoo NSLU2 dev ? |
| 02:09.06 | SpanKY | well, i flashed unslung instead of openslug |
| 02:09.15 | SpanKY | since i forgot the difference |
| 02:09.29 | SpanKY | and then when i tried to do unslung, there seems to be a bug in the uclibc bb |
| 02:09.34 | [g2] | 2.4 versus 2.6 :) |
| 02:09.46 | SpanKY | well, the 2.4 kernel works a lot better with the usb driver than 2.6 |
| 02:09.47 | [g2] | good for uClibc testing :) |
| 02:09.51 | SpanKY | which is to say i can use it |
| 02:10.08 | SpanKY | lemme see if the bug still exists |
| 02:10.09 | [g2] | are you running usb-networking adapters ? |
| 02:10.13 | SpanKY | no |
| 02:10.24 | SpanKY | still using the onboard |
| 02:11.54 | SpanKY | the bug with uclibc was in the bb's configuration |
| 02:12.06 | SpanKY | meaning you'd have to fix it because i tried reading the bb files but got nowhere :/ |
| 02:12.28 | kergoth | whats wrong with it? |
| 02:12.30 | [g2] | was that the one that looped for ever ? |
| 02:12.38 | [g2] | filled up the hd ? |
| 02:12.38 | SpanKY | yes |
| 02:12.45 | kergoth | ah, just an out of date defconfig |
| 02:12.46 | SpanKY | the config output for cpu selection |
| 02:12.49 | kergoth | its a bug in uclibc's buildsystem |
| 02:12.54 | kergoth | and th kernels, for that matter |
| 02:13.02 | kergoth | when stdout isnt a tty, and it prmopts for something, it should error |
| 02:13.05 | kergoth | instead it loops indefinately |
| 02:13.18 | SpanKY | i tried putting a 'yes "" |' somewhere and that didnt fly ;) |
| 02:13.26 | kergoth | *cough*hack*cough* |
| 02:13.27 | [g2] | :) |
| 02:13.30 | kergoth | :) |
| 02:13.54 | SpanKY | so i just did a `bk pull && bk -r get` ... it should be fixed then ? |
| 02:14.34 | [g2] | SpanKY, you can just run the config manually can copy over the uClibc.config file |
| 02:14.43 | SpanKY | hmm, now it fails during compile |
| 02:14.50 | SpanKY | armeb-linux-uclibc-gcc: Command not found |
| 02:14.58 | kergoth | yes, i pushed the fix for the armeb uclibc 0.9.27 defconfig earlier |
| 02:15.17 | [g2] | ~praise kergoth |
| 02:15.19 | jbot | All hail kergoth! |
| 02:15.33 | kergoth | eh, you should only ever get that message if the gcc-cross-initial wasnt built |
| 02:15.39 | kergoth | which cant happen |
| 02:15.41 | [g2] | the default was for generic arm |
| 02:15.47 | kergoth | unless you changed your target arch or os or machine or distro in the middle of a build |
| 02:16.05 | kergoth | you need to wipe tmp when you change a critical variable like that |
| 02:16.09 | SpanKY | bah |
| 02:16.11 | SpanKY | weak ! |
| 02:16.14 | kergoth | [g2]: did you see the change i did earlier? |
| 02:16.22 | [g2] | kergoth, no which one ? |
| 02:16.24 | kergoth | [g2]: TARGET_ARCH and TARGET_OS no longer default to the BUILD versions |
| 02:16.30 | kergoth | [g2]: and the build aborts if you didnt set them |
| 02:16.43 | kergoth | should reduce support load a bit, from users who didnt set things per the docs |

| 02:23.10 | [g2] | kergoth is there an easy way to just rebuild the kernel, I looked at the temp/do_run.compile commands but it didn't seem too happy |
| 02:24.58 | kergoth | ? |
| 02:25.07 | kergoth | bitbake -c clean virtual/kernel; bitbake virtual/kernel |
| 02:25.15 | kergoth | bitbake -c clean -b /path/to/openembedded/packages/linux/blah.bb |
| 02:25.19 | kergoth | bitbake -b /path/to/openembedded/packages/linux/blah.bb |
| 02:25.20 | kergoth | whatever |
| 02:25.53 | [g2] | kergoth, I'm attempting to add so printk's to the kernel to debug the usbnet issue |
| 02:26.13 | [g2] | I'm gonna be rebuilting debugging kernels |
| 02:26.51 | kergoth | bitbake it |
| 02:26.53 | kergoth | go into tmp/work and modify |
| 02:27.05 | kergoth | then rm -f tmp/stamps/whatever.do_compile |
| 02:27.07 | [g2] | I'm trying to investigate if the usbnet issue we have is related to http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-arm@vger.rutgers.edu/msg03879.html |
| 02:27.08 | kergoth | bitbake it again |
| 02:27.28 | kergoth | or use bitbake's -f option with -c to force execution of a task even if it believes its completed it already |
| 02:27.42 | [g2] | ok, you I just need to nude the stamps |
| 02:27.47 | [g2] | :) nuke |
| 02:27.53 | kergoth | only do_configure. |
| 02:28.03 | kergoth | if you nuke do_unpack, itll unpack fresh sources right on top of yours |
| 02:28.04 | kergoth | he |
| 02:28.05 | kergoth | h |
| 02:28.39 | [g2] | ok so do_configure or do_compile |
| 02:28.52 | [g2] | configure if there's a new config |
| 02:29.03 | [g2] | and compile if I'm just building |
| 02:29.25 | kergoth | right |

| 02:59.07 | [g2] | Hmmmmmmm ... interesting |
| 03:05.18 | garpinc | rwhitby... It seems that class path is not completely compile most likely as a result of not having java on your build machine. |
| 03:06.44 | garpinc | It should have produced a file in ipk opt/share/classpath/glibj.zip. It could also be you don't have zip installed on your build machine. |

| 03:36.06 | ka6sox-away | since this is a volunteer outfit they do what they can. |
| 03:36.24 | ka6sox-away | if somebody was around who could do it they would speak up. |
| 03:37.08 | garpinc | I can do build but I don't know if I am priveleged to to promotion. |
| 03:37.37 | garpinc | How does one get awarded that honour? |
| 03:39.17 | ka6sox-away | rwhitby is the package manager...and only he promotes packages iirc. |
| 03:40.18 | ka6sox-away | so he looks at packages all the time (when he has time) and promotes those that follow the template and work. |
| 03:40.29 | garpinc | ok we'll wait till he has a chance... Some people were complaining on newsgroup that jamvm is broke.. |
| 03:41.07 | garpinc | Most likely that he did not have zip on his build machine.. |
| 03:41.25 | ka6sox-away | okay...since this is a OpenSource project and nobody is being paid to maintain things, things get done ASAP. |
| 03:42.58 | garpinc | Things are actually pretty damn good here. I wasn't complaining... |

| 05:26.05 | ka6sox-away | know |
| 05:27.34 | TheSnark | Okay, thanks |
| 05:29.03 | TheSnark | I'm building natively on the nslu2. When I make my app, the resulting binaries have "armv5b-softfloat-linux-" or similar at the beginning of their filenames. |
| 05:30.40 | ka6sox-away | okay I haven't built natively *yet* (I'm putting together a native build machine tommorrow :)) but give me a couple of days (or somebody else jump in) |
| 05:31.11 | TheSnark | Removing the "$(GNU_HOST_NAME)" and related bits from configure prevents this, but other *.mks I've looked at all seem to have this, and yet the packages install binaries without such details in the filenames. |
| 05:31.16 | TheSnark | Okay ::) |
| 05:32.15 | TheSnark | Admitedly, I have not yet compiled other packages to see if the *self-compiled* ones are like this. |
| 05:32.22 | jacques | sounds like a "feature" of that package's build process |
| 05:32.27 | ka6sox-away | have you looked at any of the other native packages? |
| 05:32.38 | ka6sox-away | and seen what their makefiles look like? |
| 05:33.28 | ka6sox-away | dinner call...bbs |
| 05:33.33 | TheSnark | Yeah, they have the configure lines in them. I understand that specifying those details are important for cross-compiling. |

| 14:24.26 | rwhitby | Nice mention of Unslung firmware ... |
| 14:25.21 | rwhitby | they even quote rules #3 and #4 |
| 14:25.23 | rwhitby | ~nslu2-rules |
| 14:25.24 | jbot | i heard nslu2-rules is 1) Those who ask the questions, update the wiki, 2) Those who complain about the doco, update the wiki, 3) Friends don't let friends flash custom firmware without confirmed RedBoot access, 4) Friends don't let friends flash custom bootloaders without confirmed JTAG access. |

| 15:57.29 | [g2] | giel, no what's up with kexec ? |
| 16:00.17 | giel | [g2]: i mean, have you heard of it? |
| 16:04.05 | [g2] | giel, I have not heard of it from what I recall |
| 16:04.57 | giel | it might be interesting, it's a kernel patch + util which allows you to boot a different kernel without actually rebooting, meaning you could boot another kernel from hdd from within switchbox |
| 16:05.26 | giel | it might be overkill, but nonetheless i guess i'm going to experiment with it somewhere in the not to distant future |
| 16:07.39 | [g2] | giel, kergoth was talking about something like that a couple months ago |
| 16:07.58 | [g2] | kexec is an appropriate name :) |
| 16:08.39 | giel | :) |
| 16:09.14 | giel | well, i first want to succeed in pivot_rooting |
| 16:13.55 | [g2] | that should be straight forward |
| 16:15.06 | giel | yeah, it should |
| 16:15.13 | giel | but something goes wrong and i don't know what |
| 16:15.21 | giel | but more experimenting tonight |
| 16:15.28 | giel | i really want a serial port now :) |
| 16:16.20 | [g2] | giel, do you have a usb-serial port adapter ? |
| 16:16.29 | giel | [g2]: i don't |
| 16:16.41 | giel | are you suggesting something along the lines of another bootloader? |
| 16:17.26 | [g2] | giel, no. It would be nice to load the usbserial drivers and open up a console from within switchbox on the usb serial port |
| 16:17.35 | giel | hm yeah |
| 16:18.26 | giel | well, tonight i'm first going to check if the hdd gets mounted correctly (i suspect it does, because of some disk activity) and try to output some debug info on the hdd |

| 16:18.44 | giel | or maybe even to a memstick |
| 16:18.57 | [g2] | You're running uClibc right ? |
| 16:19.01 | giel | uhu |
| 16:19.20 | giel | but i don't think that has anything to do with it |
| 16:19.26 | giel | as switchbox isn't compiled on my system |
| 16:19.28 | [g2] | SPanKY ran into an issue with uClibc |
| 16:19.48 | [g2] | maybe it was just the loopforever config |
| 16:20.04 | giel | yeah, i'm passed that :) |
| 16:20.08 | giel | (thanks to you) |
| 16:20.30 | [g2] | I think it was the guys on #oe that recommeded the suggestion |
| 16:20.37 | giel | ah |
| 16:20.45 | [g2] | I think kergoth fixed that in the repo |
| 16:21.04 | giel | anyway, loading all modules, sleeping a few seconds and mounting the drive results in the expected disk activity |
| 16:21.09 | [g2] | it is a nice little community thought :) |
| 16:21.20 | giel | but then the boot process just stops |
| 16:21.49 | giel | you assume correct |
| 16:22.32 | giel | anyway, i'm at work now, going home soon after a quick stop at the mall |
| 16:22.38 | [g2] | and you're attempting to do it from /linuxrc |
| 16:22.43 | giel | if anything new comes up i'll let you know |
| 16:22.45 | giel | yep |
| 16:22.55 | [g2] | GL! have fun and I am interested |
| 16:23.04 | giel | i mount the ramdisk on my workstation |

| 16:23.07 | giel | unmount |
| 16:23.08 | giel | gzip |
| 16:23.11 | giel | boot into redboot |
| 16:23.11 | [g2] | I'm debugging the usbnet IP receive issue |
| 16:23.19 | giel | load the kernel from flash to mem |
| 16:23.23 | giel | load the ramdisk over tftp |
| 16:23.25 | giel | and boot |
| 16:23.32 | giel | and again and again :) |

| 18:03.31 | [g2] | VoodooZ_log, you notice my post to the wrong window eh ? :) |
| 18:03.38 | VoodooZ_log | So it's an endianness issue you say? |
| 18:03.42 | VoodooZ_log | yep. |
| 18:03.56 | [g2] | I'm thinking it's usbnet specific |
| 18:05.16 | [g2] | I see the problem with both the ALI chipset and ASIX AX8817x chipset which both use the usbnet driver |
| 18:05.53 | [g2] | IP packets are getting dropped on the receive with the lookup failure |
| 18:06.26 | [g2] | these drivers work on the PC which is little endain |
| 18:07.15 | [g2] | So I'm thinking it's usbent, big endain, IP related |
| 18:07.31 | VoodooZ_log | good. Hopefully it's an easy one to fix. |
| 18:08.29 | [g2] | I'm probably gonna e-mail the arm-linux ml |
| 18:09.13 | VoodooZ_log | makes sense. |

| 21:00.55 | dyoung | giel, have you looked at what switchbox-4.x is doing? |
| 21:01.23 | dyoung | I've had pivot_root working in that version for at least a month. |
| 21:05.57 | giel | dyoung: yes, i've tried 4 |
| 21:11.01 | giel | dyoung: the thing is, i can't see what's wrong, because i've got no serial port |
| 21:11.47 | giel | dyoung: there's some drive activity as the hdd gets recognized, then there's some more activity when it gets mounted, but i don't even know if the mount succeeds |
| 21:12.57 | [g2] | dyoung, giel is also running uClibc |
| 21:13.18 | dyoung | I had an issue with uclibc devices. |
| 21:13.43 | [g2] | which issue would that be ? |
| 21:13.47 | dyoung | where it would try to pivot to a uclibc-created device file |
| 21:13.57 | dyoung | but fail for unknown reasons. |
| 21:14.26 | dyoung | I was pivoting to a glibc based rootfs, so I assumed it was that. |
| 21:14.35 | [g2] | giel, dyoung you should talk to SPanKY in #uclibc if that's an issue |
| 21:14.45 | [g2] | he's bringing up gentoo on the NSLU2 |
| 21:15.02 | [g2] | and he's quite active with uClibc |
| 21:15.10 | dyoung | I dont know what is or is not an real vs perceived issue at this point, |
| 21:22.07 | giel | hm, interesting |
| 21:22.45 | giel | i'm running a uclibc based rootfs |
| 21:23.02 | giel | but i'm using switchbox, which probably is glibc based |
| 21:23.12 | dyoung | uclibc. |
| 21:23.33 | giel | is switchbox uclibc based? |
| 21:23.38 | dyoung | Yes. |
| 21:23.42 | giel | hm |
| 21:23.50 | giel | well, still weird |
| 21:24.17 | dyoung | it would be a *lot* easier with serial. |
| 21:24.20 | giel | uhu |
| 21:24.30 | giel | a *whole* lot |
| 21:24.57 | giel | maybe i should just buy a usb to serial cable and load the usbserial module for output |
| 21:25.03 | giel | or maybe i should stop being lazy |
